Nude Photo Backlash Begins as Prince Harry Heads Home

A slightly more redfaced-than-usual Prince Harry flew home to London this week, following the leak of nude photos showing him partying the weekend away with (at least) one female friend. And while some family members are happy to forgive him, military bosses are likely to be less easygoing about the scandal. "Officers should never bring the Service into disrepute, whether on or off duty," a British military insider tells Us, noting that the young prince may face a formal reprimand. Harry does have one Brit in his corner, though: the Duchess of Cambridge's second cousin. Burlesque dancer and peripheral family member Katrina Darling recently spoke to RumorFix about the whole nasty affair: "I don't see what the big deal is," she said. "He's just a young man in [Las] Vegas enjoying himself. Although, he really needs to drop the friends that posted those pictures." (HuffPo)
